f.y.e. joins Hootie & the Blowfish's School Supply Collection!

Since 2003, Hootie & the Blowfish has encouraged fans to get involved in their community by bringing school supplies with them to be donated on site. The band and their fans have gathered enough school supplies to pack over 20 buses, or $150,000, worth of school supplies in the past. Their goal this year is to double their contributions in just a few short months!

Hootie & the Blowfish will hit 25 cities on the Homegrown Concert Series Tour and they will be encouraging concert attendees to donate school supplies at each stop on the tour. In addition, they will encourage fans to go to f.y.e. to donate a $1 to help their local school prior to each tour date.

f.y.e. will be presenting a check to a local school at each show starting with the first tour date in New Braunfels, TX. All proceeds will be donated to economically disadvantaged schools within each community that the band visits on the tour. Fans will be able to keep track of the giving in each city by visiting www.hootie.com.
